Far better female artits:

Nico
Patti Smith
PJ Harvey
Aretha Franklin
Gillian Welch

etc

lauryn hill is awesome but one time she said she makes music for strictly black people. And I was kinda thinking what the fuck did that bitch just say?

Other than that shes one of my favorite for sure.

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill and The Score are two of the best hip hop albums ever made imo

no shit sherlock

one of the reasons shes #1

Making music for only one type of person is a terrible thing. geeeez segregate much?

she MAKES it for them
you understand what that means right?
shes not like tommy hilfaggot who publicly said he only wants white people to wear his clothing

"I only make music for black people."
"I only want black people to listen to my music. "
Seem pretty damn similar to me.

Hiphop should be made for everyone no matter who you are or where your from.

no
whack asses like lupe fiasco make music for white people
aka
he sold out
lauryn was basically saying "fuck my record label, i will not make bullshit they give me to sell records"(they had tried to get her to make a more "pop" type of album)
i guarantee lauryn doesn't care WHO listens to her music
but it is made for a specific group, if it reaches other groups, the message is still the same, its sort of an added bonus
